Individual designs

“My aim was to reduce plastic materials in products and let them benefit from the flexibility of carton. Since they normally look all the same, I came up with the idea of redesigning lamella window blinds. It was possible to make a variety of individual designs with the help of printing machines and laser cutters, so that every window was given its final touch.”

[More]The packaging was created for a fictitious tequila brand, which is supposed to be sold exclusively at the luxury "Tacos" restaurant, also fictitious.The whole project (including the visual identity, which can be seen on my Behance profile, too) revolves around a luxury restaurant. Also, my intention was to create a box that would be unusual and thus show the uniqueness of both the product and the place. The "cap" indirectly refers to the Mexican sombrero. The whole packaging is about luxury, elegance and simplicity but there are some interesting details and elements such as the pattern "stripes" and the typography that mimics them. [Less]

[More]Our mission was to challenge today's packaging and to minimize the use of plastic, unnecessary outer packaging and product wastage. Most people regularly use some form of hair product. The packages in use today are made of plastic. They're hard to empty, have excessive outer packaging, are bulky, and often made with multiple materials, which complicates recycling. Another problem with these kinds of packages is that it's hard to get the right dose, resulting in overdosing. Alomia has solved these problems. [Less]

[More]Anytime with me is small portable packages for salt and pepper which are convenient for lunch, picnicking and so on.This package can be pulled open like a match box, which should ensure that the contents don't open by accident in your bag.The package is designed in a unique shape resembling an hourglass. This design has resulted in the inner bottle not coming out entirely when being pushed out; it can stop halfway.Please re-check your data and information. [Less]

The accessory slides in the bag and folds out to create compartments. If the middle compartment in the carton shopper is full, the side flaps can be pulled down to create a protective layer and this makes it possible to stack on top of it.After use, the carton shopper can return to its flat origin making it possible to store it where people often store their shopper bags, either in the car or closet.Category [Less]

It can be transported easily due to its flat form. It can be made three dimensional very quickly, simply by squeezing the flat form in one move. After it is squeezed it is ready to use and can be stacked one within the other. It is produced by cutting and folding, glue is needed just for one edge so this makes its production easier and less costly. Its cone form sits comfortably in your hand and the sauce is stable for take away. It can be promoted to consume other healthy snacks with dipping sauces like cucumbers, carrots for parties, cocktails, etc. [Less]

Restaurants can stock up on „Fancy Latz" to provide their customers with clothing-protection and a fun experience.The parts of the print that would show skin are grey in order to keep the focus on the clothing and not on who is wearing it. Thus anyone can shine in „Fancy Latz". The straps would hold up without the closure hooks but they remained in the design to ensure a snug fit even on the small-necked among us.In addition to the „Glamour-line" there could be multiple different styles for restaurants, festivals, takeaway places and so on.

Description:The idea behind FOOD LOCK grew from a practical kitchen issue caused... [More]The idea behind FOOD LOCK grew from a practical kitchen issue caused by "re-usable" seals on food bags sold in supermarkets. Food bags with seeds, nuts, oatmeal flakes or soup noodles are usually sold with a small piece of re-usable sticker at the back of the packaging, or with no re-opening system at all. When no sticker is present, an improvised closing system such as adhesive tape is used instead. In either case, after about a week of re-using a sticker/tape on a daily basis, the sticker does not stick anymore, leaving the package open. This can very easily lead to the contents spilling in the kitchen. In order to prevent food from spilling and also to replace the plastic sticker with a more environmentally friendly system, FOOD LOCK was created. FOOD LOCK comes in 3 various lengths, adjusts to the size of the food package and keeps the package safely closed. [Less]

During the planning process my main aim was to create a multiform box without using unnecessary materials. The building process is really easy, all of the contents are included. It consists of a box and a string. By pulling the string at the marked place, the box transforms into a house to feed the birds. In this way you can easily feed your cute birds! [Less]

[More]The packaging "Gianduiotto" has been conceived as a gift box containing 15 gianduiotti.The project is based on the triangular shape inspired by the chocolate's silhouette, with both the closed box and the individual inner compartments included. At first glance the packaging has a trapezoidal shape, but once the lid is lifted two tabs are made visible, which, if pulled, reveal the whole hexagonal shaped package containing the product.The surprise effect is enhanced by the initial movement and by the chromatic contrast between the black box and the typical golden wrapping of the chocolate. This metaphor increases the value of Gianduiotti, assimilating them to gold ingots kept in a strongbox.The model was made using black cardboard (220 g/m2 and 240 g/m2) and ivory cardboard (240 g/m2). The packaging solidity was made possible by exploiting the durable paper properties, using various creases. [Less]

[More]The idea was to take care of all the children out there who have always been scared of being vaccinated.A cover for different syringes should distract children and give them a little smile, so they stop thinking of any pain or any bad experiences with injections. In the front you can see funny faces of animals, for example a butterfly, an elephant and an owl. On the other side there is a small slit for the doctor to see the amount of vaccine. After the children have received their injection, they can keep the cover as a reward.This product will help children, and parents, to make a visit at the doctor way easier.The name „Happinate" is composed of the words „happy" and „vaccinate". That is exactly what the product stands for. [Less]

Moreover, I added many details thanks to laser-cutting technology including different types of holes for all kind of jewels. [Less]

It is a lamp emerging from its own packaging. In this way we do not waste more material than what is strictly needed. The usual envelope that is disposed of later, is now replaced with "useful merchandising". The container not only represents the brand; it is also a part of the consumer's life. This functional packaging can definitely be used at any place the consumer decides, showing both directly and indirectly the identity and values of the brand, and the utility of this box that can turn into a lamp.

The cardboard pack is easily folded flat, assembled and filled; moreover, the resealable upper flap is devised to preserve the beans better. The essential pack shape with a side curve evokes a pitcher; its easy handling and strong affordance will allow to easily and rapidly pour what is inside. A narrow lateral window is purposefully designed not only for beans to be visible and attract the purchaser, but to check how many are left at any time as well. [Less]

Your cap gives you comfort, saves you from a bad hair day, it matches you and your outfit just perfectly. Some even collect them!I asked myself why there is no functional and stylish way of packaging and storing caps. What if I could find a way to increase enthusiasm at the moment of purchase, and save the cap from losing its shape. What if the packaging could help display one's personal collection and make it look even more amazing? Isn't it a pity that up to now you had to completely hide your newly acquired cap in a plastic bag or in your closet? Pac is the answer to all cap lovers' prayers! Treat your cap better, pack your cap in a pac! [Less]

The plug is placed first, then the cable is wrapped around the body and lastly earpieces are placed in the remaining hole. Due to the shape of Papillons the cable does not get worn out. Papillons can be used to adjust the cable length and be worn while the earphones are being used. [Less]
